He can learn to read in prison. Every cloud has a silver lining.
and learn how to fly…
@Debi and to bite the pillow or else he gets the nightstick again.
Ghislaine Maxwell only got 20 years. And she was far more involved than this guy ever will be.
Remember to breath through your nose during “mic” time Roberto!
He claimed he cannot read – yet arranged an produced his own music. He also wrote the lyrics on his own songs . How is that possible for someone who cannot read ? His defence must have thought – let’s use this ploy as a mitigating factor which may induce some sympathy from the juge and jury to get a reduce sentence. It didn’t work.
he freestyles his songs and also u dont need to read music sheets to produce music. hes been playing piano since a child… just saying
LEARN HOW TO SPELL
He’s disgusting and it’s sick he was able to harm children for so many years without anyone stopping him.
But u kove hip hop?
How did he get 10 years MORE than Ghislaine Maxwell??
Who cares? They both gone!
When those who visited her Island are exposed and arrested this will be a baseline for what they will be given as sentences, no year or two but 30 minimum.
@Calvin Abbott I think that’s why she got 20 instead of worse… I think she slipped some names!
@Calvin Abbott Let’s hope
@I Loves chicken Let’s hope 🤞
Justice has been delivered 😊
1:21 “underage women” is not a thing.
Children would be the correct word
Exactly. They were GIRLS. Children.
Justice served right. We need these kinds of laws in 🇨🇦
Justice ? No only death penalty for sex crimes against children is justice.
If he has more charges…what difference does, it make? I am sure he had HELP…what of them?
He’s getting what he deserves. The poor victims
30 years suites him.
This is a great news.
He gets 30, and Ghislaine gets 20? Ya okay?? Either she sung for a better deal or R. Kelly’s being made an example of! Unreal..both should get LIFE w/out Parole!
It’s about time ! just cause your rich and famous does not give you the right !
He believes he can fly! He believes he can touch behinds!
He thinks about it every night and day, spread his hands and grab away!
While snoop dog got away with it
Where are the complicit parents.
This is just one case he has other cases in other states wow he gone.
Justice has been given 💯
